The following decisions and rescripts were re-
ceved yesterday In cases pending on the law
docket for the Western Law District:
FRAKLIN COUNTY.
Emerson w. Bryant vs. Maine Central Railroad
Company.
Rescript Jy Walton, J. When one accepts a
deed bounding him by anothers land, the land
referred 10 becomes monument which will con-
troll distances, and the grantee can hold no por-
ton Of the others land, although his deed of it
Is not recorded. In this case, the plaintiff was
bounded by the least bound of the Maine Cen
tral Railroad To give him the quantity of land
described IN his deed, he must overlap the rail-
road Just half a rod. AMI he claims the right to
do SO, because the deed Of the railroad was not
acknowledged, and was not, therefore, legally re-
corded (although actually recorded) and he had
side line Of the railroad when he took his deed.
The plaintiffs claim can not be sustained. and
Judgment must be entered for the defendant.
LINCOLN COUNTY.
state vs. William Beaton.
Rescrtpt ~ Waton, L-Neither q complaint
nor an indictment for criminal offense in sufic-
lent unless it states the day. as well as the month
and year on which the offense was committed. In
thus particular, the complaint in this case is
fatally defective. 1t does not state the day on
which the etfense was committed. The excep-
tons must therefore be sustained and the COM
plant quashed.

sonal estate vests in the persons who own the

SUNDAY CLOSING.


The following communication was received
and ordered on file:
The following resolution was unanimously
passed by vote of the Ministerial Associa-
ton of Portland and vicinity at its regular
meeting on Monday, Feb. Z, 1887, at Y. n c.
A. Hall, viz:
Whereas, public necessity does not require that
the drug stores OF Portland be open for promiscu-
Gus business on Sundays; and
whereas, such opening and much of the busi-
ness resulting herefrom is contrary TO the laws of
God and this Commonwealth; and
whereas, large majority of our druggists have
expressed their willingness to close their shops on
Sunday; therefore, it Is hereby
Resolved, That this association-in behalf of a
better observance of Sunday, and in behalf of the
Chistian sentiment OF this community, which ii
represents, and in behalf Of the employees Of said
druggists, many sof whom are now required TO
work seven days In the week-do hereby respect
fully request the city government through its
marshal, TO close and 10 hereafter keep closed all
the drug stores in Portland from midnight of Sat
urday until midnight OF Sunday, except that the
key may be turned for the necessary filling OF
physicians prescriptions.

IN CONCLUSION.

Being fully aware of the importance of the
interests committed to our keeping, let us ap-
proach them in no spirit of partisanship or self
seeking, but with an earnest purpose, through
mutual CO. operation, TO secure the best results
for our constituents.
By so doing we commend ourselves to the
approval of our consciences, and reflect honor
upon the city whose prosperity and good name
we have so much at heart. ~@

submitted by them to lease the road, assuming
all its liabilities, and paying one per cent divi-
dend upon its stock for the first three years
succeeding the date of the lease, and two per
cent forever afterward. Under these terms
the city would receive about $4,000 per
annum for the first three years and $4,000,
annually, thereafter. This proposition, in the
opinion of the committee was not sufficiently
favorable for the city to accept and it was ac-
cordingly declined. Besides the Maine Gen.
trail, other and more distant railroads have
evinced desire to acquire the city's interest,
thus demonstrating that, at no distant day,
the city will be able, if so dispoeed,
to part with its interest in the
road upon favorable terms. Meanwhile,
it is manifest that its value is constantly APP
preciating. Before many months a connection
can be made directly with the Northwest
through the Minneapolis and Sault st. Marie
road, while there is no doubt that the Cana
dian Pacific must eventually find an outlet
over the Ogdensburg for much of its immense
foreign business. Under all the circumstances
there is nothing to be gained, and probably
much to be lost by the city, in making haste to
dispose of its interest. Upon no condition
should any other system be allowed to pur-
chase or lease it, without securing to the city
in absolute terms the commercial advantages
for which twas projected.
In the mean time the city government must
decide whether to continue it in the hands of
the receiver, or, by providing for the payment
Of the receivers certificates to lberate it from
the court. There is much difference OF opin-
ION as 70 which course is preferable; the
friends Of the receivership claiming that the
tenure of the city will be most secure under its
protecton.--while the opponents assert that no
income can be received upon the stock 50 long
as the earnings of the road are absorbed IN re-
newal account and the gradual payment OF
receivers certificates.
This property, SO costly to our citizens
having passed successfully through the ordeal
OF foreclosure and reorganization, demands the
most jealous care, and am sure that through
no inattention or errors on your part, Its great
Importance in value to our city, more pro-
spectively than now, will fail of being realized.

ALL WERE AMERICANS
The memories of the four years war which
cluster above the graves of the Blue and the
Gray, are identical and equally dear to the
surviving comrades of each. There is one grand
memory which we may ever enjoy, the fortitude
and devotion of the American soldiers. North
and South and their manhood in battle will not
ian 10 awaken the admiration of mankind 50
long as any people are called Americans. The
grandest efficient result Of the war was to forti
fy our nation with a public opinion which has
since enviroEed the world. Where is the nation
afford to disregard IL: The migrating thousands
who are pouring into our country from all
tions and races attest the universal and con
tinued effect and grandeur of that opinion.
Il needs no laundering navy nor consuming
army TO make it manifest.
THE UNDYISG MOTHER OF CIVILIZATION.
Religion is the first necessity experienced and
the last comfort relinquished in every human life.
In tnlS mothers arms we are suspended between
two minutes, asi in hammock one end of which
is held by memory, the other by hope. The his
tory of this nation. the only one which can now
be studied from its beginning is already new
and original page in the story of the world Not
yet a hundred years old, and on a new CONT
nent, nation that employs 2OO00o0 men in
social war; and succeeds in uniting itself and
knitting its people together is certainly original.
Another wonderful thing is that the very sol
diers of both armies WIN did the fighting enjoy
the readisst mutual confidence and brotherly
esteem and mayhap, in spite of Indifferent and
ignorant politicians they and their children will
become the strongest social cement Of our per
manent union.
We dashed together like waves on rocks,
We fought till the ground was red;
We met in the shuddering battle shocks.
Where none but the freed soul fed.
Now side by side in the nations life,
And shoulder to shoulder are we;
And we know by the grip of our hands in strife,
What the strength of our love may be.
Brief addresses were also made by Gen. l.
d. Imboden, Hon A. J. Mccall, of New
York, and Hon. Carlton Mccarthy, of Rich
mond. Both Gems. Gordon, of Georgia, and
jackson, of Tennessee, were expected, but
neither came. The celebration was a grand
success and was witnessed by 10000 people.

OUR RED CITIZENS.
a Strong Memorial for the President
On the Land Question.

On the Land Question.
ST. LOUIS, June "a special from Eu-
faula, I. T., says: The Indian council re
sumed its sessions Wednesday morning
with delegates from eighteen tribes present,
who expressed their satisfaction at the re-
port of the committee appointed Monday to
draft memorial to the President ON the
land question. The preamble enumerates
the tribes that are to sign the memorial,
to-wit, the Cherokees, Greeks, Choctaws,
Chicasaws, Seminoles, Sac and Fox, Usage
and Others With many misgivings they
assume that the United States government
intend to give the Indians the
benefit of civilization, without de-
priving them of rights Having lived
under this policy they claim to be fair
Judges of its utility They do not wish to
antagonize any policy of the government,
but to contribute to its efficiency; but
they make an earnest appeal in behalf
of the civilized and the wild tribes Of the
Territory, against the act providing for all
ownership of the lands in severalty, to the
Indians II will be detriment to their in
terests, as it will in the near future engulf
all of the Indians and the tribes of the Ter
ritory in one catastrophe, to the enrichment
of the land monopofes, against whom even
those with the civilized machinery of
justice seem powerless to secure
Uhch iAShc9. lucy nSPiOSoeO any hiooS-
ures which will place the
Indians in so unequal a contest
The Indians need political identity, in
allegiance, called elsewhere patriotism,
in order to make any true progress in
the affairs Of life.
GIVES HIM HIS OWN PROPERTY.
The law to which objection is urged en-
ables the Indian to become member of
some other body polite by selecting and
taking to himself any quantity of land
which is at present the common property of
all The land, in the severalty law, appor-
toned to each individual is only part of
that which is already his property, and
leaves the balance for sale to others who
will be composed of the class having no
sympathy for the Indians who will rush
into the new country in their mad race for
gain and crowd out every hope and chance
of Indian civilization.
THEY HAVE HAD EXPERIENCE.
They call attention to the sad experience
of an Individual nature with the United
States in 1890 and 1882. The tribes ask that
the President stay the operations of the law
until they shall be in condition to be bene-
fitted by it. They further request that the
act be not enforced until they have an OPP
portunity of testing the validity of their
rights before the Judiciary of the United
States. The memorial, after being inter
preted, was unanimously adopted.

A BAREFOOTED HERO.
A Little Boy Captures Wild Team
and Saves Childs Life.
From the Sacramento (Cal.) Bee.

and Saves Child's Life.
From the Sacramento (CdI) Bee.
At about o'clock yesterday evening a
thrilling scene was witnessed on Twentieth
street, between l and J. The people residing
ia that neighborhood were Mortified to see
team of horses come dashiug along the
street, drawing a carriage in which was
seated beautiful little girl, not more tnan
years old. The carriage bounced along
the rough street. and everybody expected to
see it overturned every instant. The little
tot held fast to the sides of the vehicle with
bravery that was surprising in one so
young. Women screamed, some nearly
tainted, and strong men remarked that the
babe could not escape death.
Presently little barefooted boy, who
could not have been over II years old, was
seen TO dash right in front of the swift
bride and cling desperately to it. He
jerked the horses and yelled 10 them, and
finally managed to turn them into fence
corner, where they were stopped without
any damage being done. IL was most
daring feat on the part of the boy, and
those who gathered about the carriage
patted the brave little fellow on the head,
and the women were so overjoyed that they
fairly smothered him with kisses.
After the little girl had been tenderly
lifted out of the carriage an old German
came running up, almost out of breath He
managed TO exclaim: ''Oh, men Colt, is
der horses hurtr'
"Say, Mister, there's der kid wot stopped
yer hosses,n said an urchin, pointing to the
little hero, who stood at the head OF the
horses.
"Oh, ish dot SO" remarked the GNman,
in an Indifferent way.
johnny l guess der man means to thank
yer" said the laxative boy; but l guess
he's too tired TO say So"
The German entered his carriage and
drove leisurely away, without even looking
at the boy who had saved his child's life.
Those who stood around, and who had wit
messed the horrifying event, muttered
curses because the lad had not been given a
handful of money or at least heartfelt
thank YOU
